THE MUSEUM – A PUBLIC SPACE AND A SOCIAL PLACE
Journal Title: Muzealnictwo - Year 2015, Vol 56, Issue
Abstract
The subject matter of this text is a broad context of social activities focused on the institution of the museum. These activities comprise initiating procedures for establishing the culture of remembrance and civic responsibility in order to strengthen the cultural heritage in creating the local community, in the social and cultural, and social and economic sense. The texts refers to a statement in Resolution no.6 from the 1st Congress of Polish Museum Professionals that ‘it is essential to launch a programme, within the framework of programmes of the Polish Minister of Culture and National Heritage, which would directly support pro-museum social activities’. Another important message is that this statement creates new creative possibilities based on activating the participation potential of institutions of the culture of remembrance. The author highlights the importance of launching the procedures of the Social Capital Development Strategy, as well as other tools whose activation is the responsibility of the Polish Minister of Culture and National Heritage. These reflections are supplemented by a regional annex with short descriptions of cultural initiatives in Ostróda County (Warmian-Masurian Voivodeshop), carried out thanks to community actions, which is focused on revealing the inhabitants’ needs for integration by creating local institutions of the culture of remembrance
